LEADTOOLS PACS Imaging includes everything developers need to create end to end enterprise PACS solutions:

Includes full support for DICOM messaging to quickly implement any DICOM client and server services.

DICOM secure communications are made simple to help protect confidential patient information.

Supports all storage IOD classes and service classes defined in the DICOM version 3 2008 base standard.

Extensive sample applications with source code are provided to show the implementation of many commonly used DICOM services as service class user (SCU) and service class provider (SCP) perspective.

Includes several interfaces to meet the needs of any developer. Low level C DLL and C++ class libraries are provided for the most flexibility available in any PACS SDK. Additionally, a high level PACS framework is included. The framework takes care of the behind the scenes coding so you can spend more time on adding additional features and usability.

In addition to PACS, LEAD's imaging support is one of the richest in the industry:

DICOM LUT/Overlay/Palette support. The high-level support for Modality LUT, VOI LUT, Palette Color Image in LEADTOOLS Medical Imaging means developers can implement DICOM Presentation state into an application with ease. LEADTOOLS can also apply the Modality LUT to the image data to further simplify image processing and statistical calculations.

DICOM Annotation Object support. Store/retrieve DICOM annotations from a dataset and convert them to LEAD Annotation objects and vice versa. Annotations can also be converted to regions of interest for additional statistical calculations and for storing to DICOM Presentation State.

Use Digital Signature Profiles to ensure data has not been tampered. LEADTOOLS is the first commercial toolkit to add comprehensive support for the DICOM Digital Signature Profiles that include: “Base RSA Digital Signature Profile”, “Creator RSA Digital Signature Profile” and “Authorization RSA Digital Signature Profile”.

Context Groups support. The use of Coded Concepts in DICOM facilitates unambiguous communication of concepts or terms. LEADTOOLS supports all the context groups defined by the “DICOM Content Mapping Resource (DCMR)”, which is specified by PS 3.16 of the DICOM Standard.

Supports Encapsulated or Native encoding of Pixel Data for Single or multi-frame compressed or uncompressed images.

Cookie cutter tool: Extract individual slices from a radiographic scanned film (useful for identifying each slice inside a scanned MRI or CT series).

MRI Brain Analysis Tool: Used to calculate the ratio between the corpus callosm (the white matter in the middle of the brain that looks like the letter X) and the brain sphere.

WPF Support. LEADTOOLS provides interoperation support between LEADTOOLS and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) images. Developers can harness the robust power of LEADTOOLS extensive file format support and image processing features, while taking advantage of the newest UI development features provided by WPF. LEADTOOLS includes WPF source code examples making the integration of many years of LEADTOOLS imaging expertise into the latest Microsoft WPF technology a simple task.
